Bia Hoi is a very light beer whose taste does vary from barrel to barrel. It’s got a slightly bitter taste and reminds me of a light German beer. It’s really very good and has a slight fizz to it.
Is Bia Hoi a good session beer?

Bia Hoi is a great session beer because it only weighs in at around 3%. This means you can while away your time having a few drinks, watching the world go by and eating different snacks or plates of food
Drinking Bia hoi is a must do cultural activity when in Hanoi!
